Kunsthal Gent

Together with Patty Delanghe we recently launched the 𝗟𝗼𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱 @fondslouisedelanghe for young artists with a connection to Ghent who are in the early stages of their professional development. It offers a helping hand to those who are still exploring, experimenting, and growing.

The fund is intentionally being shaped in consultation with young artists themselves. In the autumn of 2026, during the Temporary Centre for Shared Practice, we will decide together how best to allocate the resources. Micro-grants, residencies, production support, mentorships, publications, or presentation opportunities? The artists will help choose what is most meaningful to them.

What the family has already decided on is an annual presentation of the Louise Delanghe Award. It will be awarded for the first time tonight by Patty Delanghe to a graduating Master’s student in Fine Arts at KASK @schoolofartsgent !

The graduation ceremonies are taking place tonight at Muziekcentrum De Bijloke @debijloke starting at 6:00 PM, followed by a reception in and around the Zwarte Zaal.
